Navigation & display controls
Use navigation and display controls to help users move between displays, assets, time ranges, and related content without losing operational context.
Overview
Use navigation and display controls to help users move between displays, assets, time ranges, and related content without losing operational context.
Choose by use case
| What you need | Recommended symbol | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Reusable navigation across several displays | Navigation Menu+ | Provides hierarchical destinations and can preserve time and asset context. |
| One focused action that opens a display or URL | Navigation Button+ | Creates a clear destination action and can pass context or query parameters. |
| Apply a predefined or operator-selected time range | DateTime Picker+ | Provides buttons, calendars, or start and end controls for display time. |
| Switch the AF asset used by asset-relative symbols | Asset Select+ | Applies the selected asset as display context. |
| Present approved web content or another display | WebView+ | Embeds content inline, in a dialog, as tabs, or as a slideshow. |
Before publishing display controls
- Verify every destination, time expression, and asset-context parameter with operator permissions.
- Confirm that target symbols use asset-relative data sources when they should follow the selected context.
- Check iframe, HTTPS, authentication, and browser-policy requirements before embedding external content.
